ABSTRACT

This  research   work   examined   the  effect of  corporate   governance    structure   on  institutional investment  of selected  quoted  companies   in Nigeria.   It  extracted  data from   annual  reports  of selected firms listed  in the Nigerian  Stock  Exchange.  The objective  of the study  is to determine the  effect  of  corporate   governance   structure   on  institutional   investment   of  selected   quoted companies  in Nigeria.   Director  Equity  Interest,   Proportion  of non-executive   directors  and Size of Board  were  used  as proxies for  corporate   governance   structure   while  ownership   share  of foreign and  domestic   institutional   investors  were  used  as proxies  for institutional   investment. The research  design  employed  was ex post facto research  design.  Analyses  of data and testing of  hypotheses   were  done  through   the  aid  of  statistical   tools  such  as  tables,   and  regression technique.   It was discovered   that  there  is a significant  relationship   hetween proportion   of non• executive  directors   and  ownership    share  of foreign   institutional   investors   of  selected   quoted companies  in Nigeria.   The results further indicate  a significant  relationship    between  Board  size and ownership  share  of domestic   institutional   investors  and  between   Directors  Equity  interest and  institutional   investment.   One of the most striking  differences  he tween   countries'   corporate governance   systems   is the  difference   in  the  ownership   and  control  of firms   that  exist  across countries.     There    are    tradeoffs     between    ownership     concentration       and    voting    power concentration.  Systems  of corporate  governance  can be distinguished   according  to the degree of ownership  and control  and the identity  of controlling  shareholders.   Based  on thefindings  of the study,   it is  recommended   that  manufacturing   firms  in  making  decisions   bothering   on  board composition,    should  ensure  a higher  proportion   of  non-executive   directors   while  also  taking measures  that will ensure  that the set of persons  who make up the non-executive   directors  class have  the financial   expertise   and  are  capable  of making  investment   decisions   that  will favour foreign investors.
